Ha! I had totally forgotten the weight thing but you’re right. I remember thinking these women must have had matchsticks instead of bones because there’s no way I would ever weigh that little even if I lost all the fat in my body. I’m guessing the weights were provided by managers and publicists and were about as…

I’m not surprised to hear the company reflects its readership, and their readership is white, basic and Middle America. I also had no idea they were headquartered in Iowa. It makes sense though.

LOL ok, if it makes you feel better. 

I’m curious where you get your data about who is in “the majority” regarding pandemic behavior.

No, it’s not just fucking right wing snowflakes that are crying about this. It’s actually the argument being made by the author of this blog. She can’t see there’s a difference between a fluff piece and addressing serious accusations:

But isn’t the left bitching about Little Cuomo not covering Big Cuomo’s harassment accusations also grievance culture?

But also, what journalistic purpose would it serve to make Chris Cuomo comment on his brother?

I’m not a fan, and I think her music is terrible, but I also think Jezebel has an irrational and very hypocritical (given the lengths they go to to defend their favourites who are often guilty of much worse) hate-on for her. And I hate that it makes me want to stand up for Taylor fucking Swift.

Uh, yeah. You’re allowed to say whatever you want about yourself. It doesn’t give others the right to do the same. You have a right to try to control your own narrative, even if you’re a celebrity. Why is that such a hard concept to grasp?

Don’t base your entire career off your past relationships maybe?

I agree with you. But again, we’re not the majority. And no amount of shaming people for not following the rules and getting angry about it will change that.

This.
I don’t trust the court of public opinion to do the right thing. Doesn’t mean I don’t think these guys shouldn’t face consequences, I just don’t trust the tiny minority doing most of the screaming on social media to be the one to decide. 

I don’t agree with letting victims decide when someone has been punished enough. That’s why we have a justice system that in theory is supposed to be objective and is supposed to remove the personal from the situation so that decisions can be made with society’s best interests at heart (not the victims’, society’s).…

If the last step isn’t on the table, there is no incentive for people to be better.

Where did I say that human psychology should be the guide, or that people should get a pass for risky behaviour?

Only a bit?

Alec Baldwin’s gonna Alec Baldwin.

Look, I’m not defending the US’ government’s piss-poor job at controlling the pandemic but even countries that were ‘success stories’ (like Germany) are now struggling to contain the surge. Short of physically barricading people into their houses like the police in Wuhan did at the start of the pandemic, or taking…
